Black and Tan Details

Heading into the week with one of my all time favorite outfits. You guys have seen me wear this cardigan several times on here and even as it starts to get warmer outside, I still find ways to incorporate it into my wardrobe. The sand color is such a great neutral to add on to your outfit. 

This maxi cardigan is probably one of my most worn pieces in my closet. I have it in black, pink and this sand color. The longer length is a modern take on the classic cardigan and I find it so chic. When I wear this cardigan on instagram or snapchat, I’m often asked to share different ways to wear it. So I figured I would link a few older posts showing how I styled this cardigan. Here, I wore it to Disneyland with tennis shoes. I was a little worried about it being in the way while getting on and off the rides, but it was actually perfect. Especially as it got colder at night! If you’re looking for something more sophisticated for date night or the office, try wearing this over a slip dress. And if all else fails, just pair it with your favorite graphic tee for a casual vibe. The options are endless!

Also, I have to take a minute and share with you all my love for Luxe DH. I know that you guys love bags and accessories as much as I do, and I often receive comments or emails asking about places to find preloved and new designer pieces like this Gucci Signature Leather Padlock Bag (more Gucci favorites here). I actually discovered this site a few months ago when Austin purchased my birthday present (my Celine Nano). We were so impressed with their customer service, quality and overall shopping experience. I highly recommend shopping here where you’re ready to invest in a new bag.

Have a great Tuesday! xx Ashley

    Such a great look! You always have such a perfect tuck with your shirts…any chance you’d be willing to share tips on the “perfect tuck”?

    I love mixing black and tan! It’s funny because it’s such a personal thing, I know a lot of people hate black and tan mixing, and some love it! Personally I love it! Ha!

    I hope you have a great Wednesday,
    Michael

    I loved this cardigan last year; however, this year Halogen/Nordstrom added slits on the sides! I dislike the slits so much. They did it to the winter version too last season.
